TUMI, the leading international brand of premium travel, business and lifestyle accessories has just opened its flagship store in London’s Regent Street, the centre of the city’s shopping district. The 223 square metre store boasts state-of-the-art LED lighting and three distinct product touch-points are implemented into the floor plan: ground for travel cases, wall for men’s and women’s day bags, and special tables for small accessories. A monogramming station will provide on-the-spot product personalization. Clean, white platforms present a line-up of wheeled travel cases, reminiscent of a runway. A stainless steel rectangular counter within the travel area serves as a demonstration table to test products.
Now here’s the REALLY exciting part, to mark the launch of this illustrious flagship store, in a city known only to well to countless millions of tourists and Londoners alike. Tumi are launching one hell of a great social media competition to send two incredibly lucky winners on an incredible luxury trip of a lifetime!
On the morning of 1st May, five American Airlines flight attendants from their elite transatlantic service will hide five golden Tumi suitcases across the capital. To enter the competition, simply follow the movie clues which can be found on TumiGoldenTicket.com locate one of the golden cases, take a picture and post on social media featuring #TumiGoldenTicket. Each case found, photographed and posted will count, up to the maximum of five, so the more suitcases discovered the higher the chances of winning!
OK so what’s all the fuss about, tell us what the prize is ????

Remember the Hypercolour T-Shirts of the 1980’s, they started off one colour then as you warmed up, or simply with body heat they changed to a different one, yeah they were all the rage. That was until it was you wore it and the first area to change colour was you armpits, which just highlighted something, which really didn’t need a big colour changing arrow to point it out.
